I agree, and that's pretty much what the BBC assumed at the offset. We're a small minority of (predominantly) grumpy old codgers, hanging on to a largely lost idea of "sitting together, listening to the wireless". A tiny minority who could, and would, be ignored. Perhaps the only thing they underestimated was the degree and intensity of our grumpiness! I still think that this is/was a cause worth fighting for but, with a mere 322 signatures on the ePetition, we're clearly never going to summon the fire-power to influence a supposedly cash-strapped organisation, especially one which has just ignored a petition of more than one million signatures, aided and abetted with numerous celebrities and a tank on the lawn at Broadcasting House, all trying and failing to prevent "Auntie" from killing a prize cash cow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ChipMonk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103311 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
